my skin turning black and purple under your indelicate attentions

The record company wants to release Wings on Fire as my next single, which is all good except for the fact that I have no idea how to even go about making a video for that song. It's one of the songs that I feel closest too, and that I feel is the most personal, and no music video is ever going to fit with it in my head. I refuse to do something ( Read more... )

You could use actors from my theatre company because they wouldn't muck it up! Seriously though, I'm proud of you :D

I'm sorry you won't be supporting blondie. I'll be there tomorrow!

I wish I was supporting Blondie. That would be kind of awesome!

deirdre_ionuin July 5 2009, 11:09:43 UTC

Well yes, there is THAT :D

YOU'LL SEE ME! I bet you didn't know I followed this journal, huh? Huh? Did you know I'm a fan? Huh?

I ♥ you!

noplaceforthee July 5 2009, 10:31:29 UTC

And I ♥ you, my Quinny!

Will you be wearing a super cool Adrina T-shirt? I'll have to get some made for my wonderful fan! ;)

quinntaessentia July 5 2009, 10:42:53 UTC

I would so wear that everywhere I went. And you know it.

noplaceforthee July 5 2009, 10:53:30 UTC

Haha!

Quinny is so cute when he's being excited puppy.

I get what you mean by being close to music. Quinny wrote a song and while he was sick, I gave ti to Spectre and we released it on the DVD as a video. But it was just the band playing because I didn't want anyone to touch the images he had seen in his head when he wrote the lyrics. If you've seen that feature on the DVD, it was Quinny's tribute.

When I try to picture a video for it in my head all I want is me against a blank white wall, without make up and with hair untouched, just singing. Which would be incredibly boring but I just can't think of any other way I'd ever want to put across a song that is such a completely personal story in song format.

myeyesarehollow July 5 2009, 10:46:17 UTC

I don't think it'd be boring. I think it'd be beautiful. It's your song, you should express it your way.

Can I come tomorrow?

Re: Screened noplaceforthee July 5 2009, 10:24:07 UTC

Yes, I'd like that :) If you really want to hang around and watch me work of course. There are no boyfriendly obligations to having to come, but you'll at least have Deirdre Rose and Quinny to keep you entertained if I fail to do so.

Screened odd_symmetry July 5 2009, 10:47:45 UTC

I would love to come and watch you work. And I very much doubt you could ever fail to entertain me.

I'll be there.

We'll see if you think the same when I'm covering Lindsey Lohan songs in Russian...

Damn and blast, I won't be in town tomorrow to see it. Ah well... next time! I'm sure it'll be a very special moment, Adrina.

As for the video, why don't you come up to the shoot with Flynn one day, and have a chat to Patrick Ullaeus? I'm not necessarily suggesting him as a director, because I don't know what the Powers That Be have in mind, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind kicking some ideas around over lunch, and maybe suggesting a few names who might be appropriate. I'm sure you'll find the right solution with time. They always present themselves eventually.

noplaceforthee July 5 2009, 11:48:11 UTC

Thank you, Spectre. I'd love to do that.

in_spectre_mors July 5 2009, 12:07:30 UTC

Fantastic, I'll see you up there!
